A spectral sequence calculating the homology groups of some spaces of maps equivariant under compact group actions is described. For the main example, we calculate the rational homology groups of spaces of even and odd maps $S^m \to S^M$,…

We construct a new class of biharmonic maps, which are the critical points for the bienergy functional, by deforming conformally the codomain metric of harmonic Riemannian submersions such that they become nonharmonic but biharmonic.

Certain solvable extensions of $H$-type groups provide noncompact counterexamples to the so-called Lichnerowicz conjecture, which asserted that ``harmonic'' Riemannian spaces must be rank 1 symmetric spaces.

We introduce a class of rotationally invariant manifolds, which we call \emph{admissible}, on which the wave flow satisfies smoothing and Strichartz estimates. We deduce the global existence of equivariant wave maps from admissible…

The tension field of the identity map from a statistical manifold to a Riemannian statistical manifold, which shares the same Riemannian metric, is the Tchevychev vector field multiplied by negative one. We derive a new class of statistical…

For a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, we show that bounded biharmonic functions are constant and the space consists of biharmonic functions with polynomial growth of a fixed rate is finite…

We consider the Dirichlet problem for stationary biharmonic maps $u$ from a bounded, smooth domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ ($n\ge 5$) to a compact, smooth Riemannian manifold $N\subset\mathbb R^l$ without boundary. For any smooth…

We extend harmonic map techniques to the setting of more general differential equations in conformal geometry. We obtain an extension of Siu's rigidity to Kahler-Weyl geometry and apply the latter to Vaisman's conjecture. Other applications…
